The Hadley Park site is the fourth in South Florida offering drive-thru testing since the pandemic began, joining sites at both Hard Rock Stadium and Marlins Park in Miami-Dade County, and C.B. Smith Park in Broward.
Tuesday’s opening comes one day after Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis announced at the Hard Rock Stadium site in Miami Gardens that he was issuing a ‘safer at home’ order in the southeastern part of the state to be in place for Broward and Miami-Dade counties as well as Palm Beach and Monroe counties until at least the middle of April.
Gov. DeSantis also signed an order allowing retired law enforcement and health care workers to return to their jobs during the pandemic to help.
